The ERPro8 would perform more of a firewall role than a "router" role.
I know you are using quotes here, but I have no idea what you mean. Neither the literal words, nor any figurative implication, are apparent.
Edited that sentence to: "I'm looking to lean on more of the firewall capabilities than the routing capabilities of whichever device I choose."
Not sure why I used the quotes either.
Wouldn't that make them equal in that sense, then?
Possibly, but I'm not sure. I'm sure they perform different depending on what they are being configured to do (NAT, PAT, ACLs, etc.) but it may or may not be noticeable in my environment. If I decided to set up different firewall zones, I know for a fact that the ASA will throw traffic across the zones at just about wirespeed (gigabit). I don't have this experience in the Ubiquiti world (perhaps this is an an opportunity to test that).
